Tokyo's main index closes higher amid mixed markets in Asia
Asian equities are trading with little direction on the day with Japanese stocks faring a bit better while Chinese stocks are a little weaker on the day so far.
The Hang Seng is flat while the Shanghai Composite is 0.2% lower amid some uneasiness with trade tensions still lingering for the most part. US futures are a tad higher but the weaker performance overnight should see European stocks more subdued at the open later.
USD/JPY sits at 105.85, a tad higher as Treasury yields are slightly more firm at the start of the European morning currently.
